Xiao Nian really served Pei Zhen like a cat.
It was obviously seafood, but he claimed it to be cat food.
Wang Youquan stared in disbelief.
He looked at the badly-scratched Xiao Nian, and then at the deity-like Persian cat. Wang Youquan was at a loss for words. “Xiao Nian, the Persian cat’s pet manager?”
Fu Sichen gave a derisive cough and said, “You wish. He is only an assistant.”
“Oh, so the manager is…?” asked Wang Youquan.
“Of course it’s me,” Fu Sichen replied.
While Fu Sichen said it as though it was a matter of course, it sent Wang Youquan into a dizzying confusion.
What freaking pet manager? Could Best Actor Fu get any more ridiculous than that!
Tyrant!
Wang Youquan was distressed. He looked at Fu Sichen and knew in his heart that there was no use arguing with him. He tried a different angle of attack and said to Xiao Nian, “My brother, even if Pei Zhen is comatose, there’s no reason for you to take it out on yourself by becoming… cough, cough… an assistant.”
“Not at all.” Xiao Nian looked intently at the Persian cat. “Pei Pei is so adorable.”
Such a freaking disappointment thought Wang Youquan.
The great manager Xiao proved to be quite a responsible Pet Assistant.
He busied himself with the Persian cat’s daily essentials and was always at hand.
Before Best Actor Fu, Xiao Nian was humble and polite. However, the minute Best Actor Fu’s turned his back, the ugly side of him showed through. “Daddy!”
Pei Zhen heartlessly waved the crying Xiao Nian aside. “Scram!” Two-faced creatures were not worthy of Daddy’s affections.
“Pei Pei.” The rejection hurt Xiao Nian. “I know things are difficult for you, but I have been seriously looking for a Shaman. My heart is with Daddy, and to save your cat life!”
The exhausted Pei Zhen rolled his eyes.
Pei Zhen had a bigger problem than the Shaman.
Emmmmm….
It was probably the blossoming of a young heart…
He couldn’t understand why he was all flushed when facing Fu Sichen, his sworn enemy and stinker.
It’s not wise to confess to such things.
Especially when he himself was unsure, Pei Zhen didn’t want to say it as it would scare the idiot Xiao Nian.
Melancholic.
Too worried for words.
“Daddy.” Xiao Nian got anxious when Pei Zhen ignored him. Lowering his voice, he said, “Say, your parents are archaeologists, right? They are so knowledgeable, so perhaps they will have a solution?”
“No go.” At the mention of his parents, Pei Zhen immediately vetoed the idea and started to type on his mobile phone. [Don’t tell them, they will worry.]
Plus, what Pei Zhen feared, even more, was that the pair of Condor Heroes would get all curious and start to examine him!
Whether it was a human turning into a cat or attempting to unravel the mystery behind a two-thousand-year-old skull, the Condor Heroes would be equally enthusiastic.
“What do we do then?” The pitiful Xiao Nian was crestfallen. “Pei Pei, ever since your accident, I have come to a stand-still.”
Career stand-still.
Given Xiao Nian’s seniority, managing a fresh artiste would have been quite a waste. On the other hand, the other managers weren’t too willing to have him take on the already-popular celebrities.
Hence when Fu Sichen dangled the ‘Pet Assistant’ carrot, Xiao Nian saw it as a good compromise and readily lapped it up.
In that matter, Pei Zhen wasn’t too keen, although he had little energy to fight it. [Continue to look for a Shaman. Otherwise, you can count on being a pet manager forever.]
Doh.
Xiao Nian was in a real dilemma.
Actually, Dong Hai Fairy Xiao Nian Nian was keeping a secret.
